Fast-track speaking Thai lessons!
5 years agoI use all kinds of techniques to help my students to activate their memorization for Thai words. Forget me not! Enjoy!
Tooth = Fun
Without them, no more Fun, can't chew or enjoy your food any more!
Before = Gone
Before it's all Gone!
Cool = Yen
Japanese currency.
Done / finished = Set
My task is all Set.
Fun = Sanuk
Snooker is fun, right?
Hot = Ron
Remember, Ron? He was the hottest guy in our class.
Knife = Meat
I use a knife to cut meat.
Namecard = Naam-butt
At a party, you take your namecard out of your wallet from back pocket, next to your butt, so Naam-butt.
Possible / certainly = Die
When your boss / client asks you to do something, you better say yes, I Die for it!
Receipt = Bisex (But instead you pronounce the last consonant as T instead, as Biset)
So, whenever you need to ask for a receipt, you'll get it!
Really = Jing Jing
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle all the way..... The sound of money in your pocket!
See (I see you) = Hen
I see a Hen.
See you later = Pop gun mai
It's a pop gun you used to play with as a kid.
Still / yet = Young
As, I'm still Young and strong.
Stink = Men
Oh, Men don't like to take shower!
Transfer = Own
As soon as you wire your own money, who Owns it next? Thank you!
Boss = Jao - 9
Your boss's favourite number is Nine (9).
Hahaha, for this one, it didn't go as planned, because, one of my determined students managed to say Jao - 9 in a Thai version as Jao Gao, because, 9 is gao in Thai, so the word "boss" must be Jao Gao :)
But, wait a minute, this one I made it as a hybrid word mixed between Thai and English, so it is Jao Nine (9).
Yikes! I got busted! Sarah, your Thai version is sooo cute, made me laugh and laugh with joy, thank you!
